Lillehammer (pps) A lot of training runs, a fast sled and good runs - this combination is always a guarantee for success and was also for Russia's Olympic Silver medallist Albert Demtschenko the formula for his first season's victory in Viessmann Luge World Cup. „I like the track in Lillehammer!“ Demtschenkos says about the Olympic track of 1994.

“We had a lot of training runs in Lillehammer in the last years. I like this track and I knew that my sled could be very fast here. I am very satisfied!”
Armin Zöggeler (ITA, Olympic Champion 2002 and 2006, six times World Champion)
“Albert was better here in Lillehammer and I absolutely grant him this victory. I had a mistake in second run but I don’t know if I could have won without it.”
Felix Loch (GER, World Champion 2008 and 2009)
“In opposite to other nations we had only the training runs before the World Cup in Lillehammer. We became better but the track is also not so easy to run. I am satisfied with rank three, my sled was very good.“
